Joint Pure Math and C&O Colloquium

John Baez, University of California - Riverside

"My favorite number"


The number 24 plays a central role in mathematics thanks to a series of
"coincidences" that is just beginning to be understood. One of the first
hints of this fact was Euler's bizarre "proof" that

                  1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +  ...  =  -1/12

Pure Math Colloquium

Amos Nevo, Technion University

“The mean ergodic theorem, then and now”

The mean ergodic theorem, originally proved by von Neumann, was motivated by Boltzmann’s ”ergodic hypothesis”, and constitutes a cornerstone of classical ergodic theory.
